The UBoot on beagleboard(not xM) supports command 'tftp', xM should be
the same.
type 'printenv' to see the Ethernet config.
type 'tftp 0x...... uImage' to download a uImage file to 0x.......
the remote ip is saved in the uboot env. eg. 'serverip=192.192.192.90'

It may be a little hard to use nfs, but the ramfs will be ok....
May this help you.

BeagleBoard-xM didn’t support for UBoot with tftp, because it’s didn’t contains the Ethernet driver.
